Turns out, he's going to have to get in there and fight a bit dirtier.

Wish it were not that way within the Party, but the General Election will clearly be a drag out fight.

I'm not being critical of Biden. I think it was good strategy for him, and the Party, not to bloody things up unless necessary.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
